Overview of The Arbors at Vista Living Care

Led by executive director Blanca Rosa Loya, The Arbors at Vista Living Care is a specialized memory care community on Del Rey Boulevard in Las Cruces, New Mexico. It’s dedicated exclusively to serving individuals with Alzheimer’s and dementia. Serving Las Cruces for 29 years since its founding in 1997, the facility sits 3.6 miles from the city center in a somewhat walkable residential neighborhood. The Walk Score of 29 means most trips demand transportation, but a few nearby services are walkable.

The Arbors at Vista Living Care offers a set of living options, with occupants choosing between companion rooms that foster connection and camaraderie, or private rooms for moments of solitude and personal space. Each room can be personalized according to individual taste and preference, bolstering the facility’s way of honoring each resident’s unique identity and dignity. Daily life centers on person-centered activities and programming tailored to occupants’ interests and abilities. The art studio provides a creative outlet where occupants can explore their artistic side. Regular outings offer a sense of adventure and connection to the surrounding community. The facility also celebrates special occasions and milestones, recognizing that such moments matter, even as memory changes. A consulting pharmacist on staff ensures careful attention to medication management and health oversight. To support the security and peace of mind essential for residents and families, the facility maintains a meticulously secured environment tailored for the needs of people with cognitive decline. This careful approach to safety lets residents explore the community while remaining protected and supported.
